When Nichkhun returned home that day, his mother frowned at him. "You look troubled. What's wrong?" The demon didn't say anything, knowing that he would get scolded by his mother if he told her he cheated on Victoria. If his mother was a demon, she wouldn't have cared.

No child wanted to think that was true, that their parents didn't want them, but some do go through that. "Which was it? Was I adopted or did I turn into a demon?"

His mother turned to him and looked hesitant to answer at first, but she sighed eventually at Nichkhun's face that showed determination to know. "Adopted." There it was. The answer that Nichkhun didn't want to hear the most. He felt his world crumble around him as he unconsciously clenched his hands into fists at the th
